Should I Risk Getting Covid?

I built “Should I get COVID” as a casual way to help people decide how long to isolate, because there’s always a debate about whether it’s worth it to lock yourself in your home for a few months or whether the decrease in quality of life for that time justifies taking your chances.

It’s a simple calculator with reductive assumptions that spits out how many quality-adjusted life years you risk by being reckless/cautious (or lose by hiding away). Also if my math is wrong, please let me know, I definitely didn’t have this peer reviewed.
